Illustration Friday- Blue



This was from a series of promotional cards that I sent to art directors with drink recipes on them.

What a cool idea and what an awesome illustration! It makes me want to go there and have a nice drink with an umbrella in it:>>>> Then I'll put on the lei and the skirt and start dancing! Good job!

Great illo! Is it all by hand - ink and paint - or is there some photoshop involved? Just curious.

Enjoy the blog

Wow!! I love the sepia mood you gave it. But what attracts me is the entire piece - the illustration is just awesome.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

I made about ten of them. I kept getting calls from art directors wanting to join the mailing list but they didn't shell out any work. Nothing's for free art directors!
